Almost exactly one year ago, Heat started
Where did the Heat players go?
Did you find a better text CYOA yet?
Side story when?

Not like that's hard.
>>27413380
There are several others that I like, yeah.
>>27413380
Not playing DW, as it unfortunately does not hold me. I play just about fucking everything. It would be easier to list what I don't play.

>>27413380
I'm still here, playing DW.
Urban is my favorite.
>>27412893
How is posting a link to /mlp/ on another board a bannable offense?
>>27413820
Because people goes reeee at the mere mention of it. It's meme protocol 2.4.6.7.4.3, man, didn't you read it?
>>27413820
If someone is trying to get banned, it's not too hard.
>>27413820
No you dummy, the ">>>/mlp/_______" is the post he was banned for, he just edited out the post number. He probably posted softcore porn or lewd somewhere around here.
>>27413926
"oh whoops, I got banned, who'd have known? Welp, seems like I can't run today :D "

I should read Urban before playing this, shouldn't I?
>>27414446
Sides.
>>27414578
You'd miss a handful of jokes if you don't, otherwise I wouldn't say so.I'm in the process of reading Urban anyway, and I'd recommend it.
>>27414578
You'll miss some jokes, but you don't need Urban to enjoy what a good little bat Hype is
>>27414601
"jokes"
Could I request a paperponer?
>>27414655
eh, the main joke behind Hype is that Hype isn't like other bats, so if you miss the context of urban Hype quest might seem pretty cardboard.
>>27414747
so he isn't a nigger and doesn't like mangos? XD
>>27414747
You don't need Urban to understand that Hype isn't out torching chariots and rioting
>>27414735
Nigga just request it.
>>27414655
>>27414747
Yeah, Urban's premise is basically that bats are hood niggers and unicorns are white.

Now I'm curious. How tight would the current Joyride be?
>>27416257
It's probably still intact. Just really loose. Like really, really loose.
>>27416294
Why don't we ask her when we get the chance? She'd probably find the question amusing.

>>27416367
Aww that's adorable, thanks!Is there a character from a CYOA you'd like to see drawn or something? Cause i'd like to give something back for you being nice.
>>27416389
Currently? Nothing.
>>27416367
She looks so weird without the green.
>>27416339
No, never. What's it like?
>tfw SPES will never make another cyoa
>>27416395
That's not really necessary, but if you really want to, I wouldn't mind more art of Dandy pone, I guess. Or Floozle. I don't think anyone besides me and Inept has drawn her.
>>27416406
Purple is a nice color on her too. I woulda suggested green but I fucking didn't have enough of a brain to initially suggest that color. Hell, a darker red on her would look pretty snazzy too.
But the color is not really that important.

Thanks, again you patient person.
>>27416438
>>27416619
Dumb question on my part, but whos floozle? are they from the same quest as Dandy?
>>27400547
Insert witty advertising slogan here
>>27416631
Yes
>>27416631
Yes. They are both from Threshold. She and Dandy are dating as of the end of the Quest.
>>27416643
Also there is a white spot on her leg that I keep forgetting to fix.
>>27416685
I see, thanks for the clarity.
>>27415923
Thanks! Just got back and saw this, paper pone anon you are a treasure.

>>27418166Yes
>>27418193Like, really fucking sure?I could try my hands at it next week maybe.Only if you're all cool with it tho
>>27418314
No.
>>27418508
That's what I thought.Although we brainstormed over it in sekrit club earlier and came up with auto-bumping CYOA threads for example or automatically announcing when a quests is starting up again here
>>27418526The latter doesn't sound that bad.
>>27418526
>interfering with natural thread deaths
That's retarded.
>>27418551
I am probably gonna try working on at least the detection mechanism when I get home from vacation. Maybe someday automatically posting will be a thing as well
>>27418526
I will report the shit out of any automated activity here.
Are you retarded? There is no fucking reason for that. QM starts thread, QM makes a quick post here, QM runs quest, QM ends session, if longer pause: thread dies, if shorter pause: players bump.
Simple as that
>>27418811
it was brainstorming, anon. No need to get buttmad about it
>>27418830
This >>27418617 sounds more than just brainstorming, m8.
>>27418811
Gonna side with this guy here
The only slightly good reason you have to make a bot is to automatically notify this thread when a QM started updating their quest. And if the QM doesn't post in this thread when they start running, either they have players and a player will do that for them, either they don't want / need to notify us (FoE, SiM)
Buying a pass and making a bot seems horribly inefficient, prone to failure and is essentially not worth it.
All in all, >>60
>>27418833
Just wanna challenge myself a bit, that's why I want to work on my own thread detection method. I wanna learn my way around 4chan's JSON api

I really hope you won't do that automatic bump shit, tho. I am concerned about this whole thing.
Just a reminder that my players are great. I appreciate you guys.
>>27419211
I'm envious. My players are 99% faggots and dipshits who couldn't make obvious decisions if their lives depended on it.
>>27419096
dont be, it'd be banned like all the other 4chan bots.
>>27419211

>>27419537

>>27419600
Dubs confirm, such is life.
>>27419096
Probably won't. It's probably just going to print "bumped XXX" to the console but that is as far as I go
>>27419537
>Even though they couldn't keep the damn thread alive
I hate you. It's not their fucking duty to be around 24h a day to bump in your absence.
>>27419720
This.
Who are the good QMs out there?The ones not visiting Sekrit Club. All others are scum
>>27419762
Anon, I...
>>27419720
Well, in the end it's them who will not be able to play if the thread dies.
>>27419780
And the GM will just make another one anyway.
>>27419780
Yes, because the QM is only allowed to create a certain number of threads per week. It's a very big deal to do so and new threads are a precious and limited commodity.
>>27419799
It's easier to update than make a new thread. So even if it's not your duty, if you want to play it helps.
Are you seriously arguing about bumps now?
If a QM doesn't start a session, because he has to create a new thread, he's a faggot and his quest probably sucks and will never be finished in the first place.
Hey, sorry for not being able to run for such a long time. IRL shit really ramped up and long story short I've been busy getting ready to move and selling my house.
So which should I run?

Lovesick please.
>>27420249
Two of those people are not what you described.:^)
So my quest thread died once againlikely due to lack of players or poor timingand that got me thinking.
Should I keep going through with a slow quest with so few players, or drop it for a new quest idea?
On one hand I'll be starting over and hopefully make a few less mistakes this time.
On the other I don't think very much will be different because some problems I just can't change (timezone) or don't have enough experience to fix (prompts and conflict and stuff)
I will probably just start a new thread anyway in the morning though. Run it to the point I run out of ideas then start building the new quest.
Its only been one day and yet it feels like its been so long
>>27420614
He's half right. I'm dead inside.
>You didn't even watch today's episode live because of how boring the trailer was.
>>27421007
I'd like to keep playing personally, but I can't be there 24/7 to keep bumping it. I don't know what to tell you cause it almost sounds like you're really not enjoying yourself. I'm fine with whatever you choose to do.
The only way your gonna get better is if you just keep trying.

>>27424256
>Who is the most depressing QM?
I think FicFic has mild depression. Not sure but I have a feeling given some of his comments.
>>27424256
Bath probably.
I don't know any happy QMs.
>>27424273
Depressing, not depressed.
I would say Coltshan is very depressing.
>>27424282
>Depressing, not depressed.
well his comments are depressing also.
>>27424256
Probably rki
>>27424344
I can agree with this.
I'd be resuming Miracle: Aviar bogaloo if the players hadn't decided they died and left me without morning prompts.

Movie adaptation when
Quest idea. You are a regular pony when one late evening, you are approached by some mysterious ponies, that tell you that you are in reality the illegitimate son of Celestia. These ponies wish to put you on the throne. Do you side with them and their plan? Forge your own path? Or something else?
Feel free to take this idea and turn it into a cyoa!
>>27424584
Ideas are worthless.
>>27424602
No ideas, no cyoas.
>>27424584
Boring
>>27424667
usurping the throne doesn't sound boring to me.
>>27424584
>you are in reality the illegitimate son of Celestia. These ponies wish to put you on the throne.
This has got to be one of the most autistic ideas I've read this week.
>>27424584
>Quest idea.
I'm listening
>You are a regular pony
okay..
>when one late evening, you are approached by some mysterious ponies,
could have potential..
>that tell you that you are in reality the illegitimate son of Celestia.
Nope. Dropped. I'm out.
>>27424584
>Feel free to take this idea and turn it into a cyoa!
Shove it back up your arse where it came from.
>>27424584
>>27424685
>>27424725
>>27424756
>that tell you that you are in reality the illegitimate son of Celestia.
It doesn't have to be Celestia mind you. It can be any king, queen, or nobleman.
I picked Celestia as it could have the most story potential. But it's up to the QM.
>>27424775
Save your breath, random quest prompts almost never get picked up. At least I can't remember any instance.
>>27424775
It still sounds like something only a genuinely autistic person would be able to come up with.
>>27424790
That's because QMs want to run their own ideas. Everyone got an idea.
>>27424818
Illegitimate royal children has been the source of both historical and fictional intrigue and adventure. It is a flawed argument to say someone is autistic for suggesting such a concept.
A cyoa with that concept could be fun to play.
>>27424849
Yes, and that's absolutely fine. I wasn't complaining about it. I was just stating facts.
>>27424863
Then make it yourself if you're so fond of it.
>>27424775
Fuck off
>>27424863
A cyoa with that concept sounds like it would only be fun for an autistic person to play because that autist wants to be a special snowflake who is best friends with a Princess.
>>27424928
Oh, hey Shiny.
>>27424940
>Someone doesn't like my retarded CYOA idea?
>Must be Shiny
>>27424967
You misunderstand, I'm not him, and I think it's super autistic too.
